Approach

I offer integrative, depth-oriented therapy for individuals and couples willing to explore how underlying patterns and cycles shape their relationships, inner life, and sense of self.

Therapy here is a structured, reflective process that supports engagement with emotional and relational material over time. It’s not focused on advice-giving, skills-training, or surface-level change.

This requires consistency and the desire to address challenging, repetitive, or long-standing issues that may resist change, rather than seeking temporary fixes.

I work with individuals and couples through online therapy, and offer in-person couples intensives in the UK.

An Integrative Therapeutic Approach

My work is integrative, grounded in a psychodynamic and person-centred orientation. When working with couples, I use Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT). I focus on understanding emotional patterns as they unfold over time, attending to both present-day relational dynamics and earlier experiences that continue to shape them. Depending on what emerges in the work, I may draw on parts therapy, hypnotherapy, and inner child work, adapting the approach as therapy develops.

Depth-oriented therapy examines what lies beneath the surface:

attachment patterns formed in childhood or previous relationships,

relational templates that operate outside awareness,

and psychological material that shapes current experience despite conscious intention.

The therapeutic relationship provides space to observe and address patterns as they emerge. What happens in the space of therapy, including what gets activated, avoided, or repeated, becomes part of the material explored in therapy. This work is suited to people seeking sustained psychological and relational inquiry, particularly where patterns persist despite insight, effort, or previous therapy.

This approach is suited to people who recognise that understanding alone has not been sufficient, who are willing to engage with difficulty and vulnerability, and who can tolerate the uncertainty that comes with examining patterns rather than applying solutions. The work is structured and relationally focused.

How Therapy is Structured

Ongoing individual and couples sessions typically take place weekly at a consistent day and time, which supports continuity and progress. Individual sessions are 50 or 80 minutes. Couples sessions are 80 minutes.

I most often work with clients on a medium- to long-term basis. Short-term work can be useful during periods of focused attention, while longer-term therapy allows for deeper exploration of enduring emotional and relational patterns.

Couples therapy intensives take place in person over two consecutive days, with follow-up 80-minute online sessions to support integration and sustained progress.

Session fees and terms are outlined on the fees page.
